A model for targeting colon carcinoma cells using single-chain variable fragments anchored on virus-like particles via glycosyl phosphatidylinositol anchor.
Article in Pharmaceutical research, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeVLPs displaying tumor targeting single-chain variable fragments (VLP-rscFvs) which targets tumor-associated glycoprotein-72 (TAG-72) marker protein have a potential for immunotherapy against colon carcinoma tumors. In this study, scFvs anchored on VLPs using glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) were prepared to target colon carcinoma spheroids in vitro.
methodsVLPs-rscFvs were produced by co-injecting two types of Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV) bacmids, encoding RSV-gag and rscFvs cDNA into silkworm larvae. Large unilamellar vesicles (LUVs) of 100 nm in diameter were made using 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DOPC) and packaged with Sulforhodamine B (SRB). LUV-SRB was used to associate with VLP-rscFvs assisted by GP64 present on VLP-rscFvs to produce VLP-rscFv associated SRB (VLP-rscFvs-SRB) at pH 7.5.
resultsThe antigenicity of the purified VLPs-rScFvs was confirmed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using TAG-72 as antigen. LUV-SRB made of DOPC was used to associate with 100 μg of VLP-rscFvs to produce VLP-rscFv-SRB. Specific delivery and penetration of SRB up to 100 μm into the spheroids shows the potential of the new model.
conclusionsThe current study demonstrated the display, expression and purification of VLP-rscFvs efficiently. As a test model VLP-rscFv-SRB were prepared which can be used for immunotherapy. rscFvs provide the specificity needed to target tumors and VLPs serve as carrier transporting the dye to target.
